Washing Stuffed Animals - A Step-by-Step Guide from Mama's Laundry Talk. In ECE classrooms we tend to shy away from stuffed animals and toys because of an inability to keep them clean and sanitized. Little ones need the softness in their world. This may help.

~Some good tips for general cleaning of the washer. I always leave the washer door open when I'm done using it so it can dry. When I wash towels, I wipe down the rubber ring before I start the load. I use vinegar in place of fabric softner, so I get double duty since it also helps keep my machine clean. I also drain the overflow and clear that out, it gets a wet version of lint in there.

Step 1 was pretty basic. However, Step 2 made my washer super clean. I never knew that I could take apart pieces in the washer...boy was I surprised with the junk I found. Anyone who has boys or pets should definitely do this...or...anyone like me who hadn't done a serious cleaning of the washer since 2003!
